Costs—amendment and withdrawal of bill of costs
1806 Costs—amendment and withdrawal of bill of costs
The court may at any time, by order, allow a party to amend or withdraw a bill of costs or order that a party file another bill of costs.
Pt 6.2 (Applications in proceedings) applies to an application for an order under this rule.
Unless the court otherwise orders, the amendment or withdrawal and replacement of a bill of costs must be disregarded in deciding whether—
under rule 1834 (Costs—bill of costs reduced by 15% or more), the bill of costs has been reduced by 15% or more on assessment; or
If costs are payable out of a fund or estate, or out of the assets of a company in liquidation, and the bill of costs is reduced by 15% or more on assessment, the registrar must not allow the solicitor whose costs are assessed the costs of preparing the bill or attending the assessment, unless the registrar otherwise orders (see r 1834 (Costs—bill of costs reduced by 15%)).
the amount of the assessed costs in the bill of costs is more than, equal to or less than an offer mentioned in rule 1811 (Costs—offer to settle).
